Relationships are challenged in The Divide, award-winning writer Evan Morgan Williams' newest collection. Set in the Mountain West, place is not just a backdrop; it is a provocation, an invitation to hope, and a mirror to reflect either consolation or indifference, depending on the case. To solve a problem in the West is to solve a problem initiated by the sense of possibility that the place allows. Characters make difficult choices. The stakes are high. For Williams, division exposes character, and through breakage comes the possibility of redemption. The Divide showcases a writer at the height of his power.

-Variant Literature

"Expertly crafted and compelling . . . a literary mirror for the reader."

-Martha Gies, author of Up All Night

"Insightful, compelling, and beautifully written . . . a storyteller working at his peak."
